Spectator Information:

As all of the runs are taking place on public thoroughfares, which will not be closed. If you have family members or friends who want to cheer you on, they are welcome to do so anywhere along the route. However, please be advised that harvest is going on and there will be some harvest traffic. We would prefer that your cheering section park on North-South roads and not on the run route.

Also, October 21st is the start of youth pheasant season, and Nebraska Game and Parks has requested that those watching the run not park in the Wildlife Management Areas along the route.

Maps of the route can be found on our website: oregontrailrun.com
